Looking for opinions. Something that includes radar. Tired of fussing with multiple. Thanks.

The weather channel app (free because of ads) or the weather channel max (3.99)

I've been trying Weather channel but it's never that accurate. Says its raining when it's not and vice versa. Thanks for suggesting though.

Best simple, accurate and straight forward weather app

I like Weather Channel but I also like WeatherBug because of the lighting proximity info and the live cams for conditions in areas around me. I'm outside a lot and it gives me distance of lighting strikes. For me, that's important.

I like weather underground for it's accuracy to my location. I get the temp for my immediate "Hood", where most others, including The Weather Channel, get their temp from the airport which is 20 miles from me. It can make a difference. Their map is also more quickly updated. The weather radio is a plus. Many don't get that though.

I have Apple's Weather Channel weather on iOS 8 beta, and I also have Weatherbug. I just installed Weather Underground. WU showed a temp of 94, while both of the other apps showed 88, so I think that I will uninstall WU.

I like Yahoo Weather and eWeather HD. Both are extremely accurate (eWeather HD has a badge for current weather which I really like).
